They have a new expanded menu. Everything we had was very good, as always! We look forward to dining there again and trying the other new items on the expanded menu. Food and service were both very good and reasonably priced for fine dining in Toronto. A very good experience....

Second time we have dined there. Food and ambiance was great. The server was friendly but was slow and made silly errors (ie. Brought ‘tea’ but had forgotten to put a bag in). She tried but at the end of the day fell short. Will certainly go back and give them another opportunity as overall everything was good.

Outstanding appetizers. We had the calamari and buffalo mozarella salad. Service was very good. We sat outdoors on a warm summer night and watched the world go by.

The restaurant tries to put out very nice food; however, it’s very hard for the consistency to be there!

Arrived early evening. Although the patio looked good we opted for inside seating due to weather. The room we were seated in was dirty. Unvacuumed and unwashed sticky floors though out the restaurant. We went down to the basement to use the restrooms and had a look in the kitchen as we passed it and I can see why everything felt and looked greasy. Our server was very polite, attentive, friendly and prompt. The food was plentiful but was far from what the ratings suggested. It was all round less than average. Disappointing. We tried it but won’t be returning.

Nice little Italian restaurant in the beaches. We went on a busy night during Jazz fest and had to wait an hour and a half for our food. They apologized and treated us well. The food was excellent and prices were fair.

This was not a great dining experience. 10 minutes before getting a menu. Clueless service - didn’t know the difference between off-dry and sweet, and brought incorrect vintages 3 times in a row. The wine menu explicitly said, “ask for the Champagne list”, and since this was a friend’s birthday I asked. There was massive confusion and no Champagne list. The crostini was on Wonderbread. The mains were just ok. Everything seemed rushed and unrefined. Was never expecting 5 star quality but this was barely above a short order casual restaurant. At least the prices were reasonable... can write this one off and say no thanks to a repeat.

Solid Italian in a small setting. Waitstaff was attentive and meals were well prepared and well presented even though kitchen was short staffed. Generous wine pours and good value.
